The primary focus of my research program is the investigation of basic cognitive, affective, and social processes relevant to self-regulation. This research program is divided into two research streams. One primarily involves controlled laboratory experiments and focuses on the psychological resources that allow for successful self-regulation. The other primarily involves correlational and field research and focuses on personality and social variables associated with failures of self-regulation as they manifest in problem behavior. A secondary focus of my researh program is applied quantitative methods. Currently, this work is focused on the application of latent variable models to the study of partialed effects. I am working on an approach to modeling partialed variables in such a way that they can be independently validated, a critical evaluation that, to date, has not been possible.
